Soda Bottle Preforms and Caps (30/pk)

These babies are just plain awesome. I'm using them in my BOB kit, the medical section, to house pills. Easy to put a label on. Will also work on mini kits--like fishing or sewing kits or to house fire starting tinder bits and ferro rod or even to carry spices/flavorings in your mess kit.Pretty much indestructible (obviously, avoid heat). Take the time to carefully and slowly put on the lids for the first time (as they are in 'lock' mode with the rings), and enjoy seeing instantly if a tube's been opened or not. And if you lose a lid, don't fret, just snag one from a soda bottle you pick up at the store.Would work great in lunches or on trips. Or to carry a mini EDC kit in your bag, purse or coat. Only limited to your imagination. Get some, well worth the cost to have a small practically bomb proof vault.

Solid "test tubes" that close/seal with standard 2-liter bottle cap. Thick walls, virtually unbreakable and can survive drops onto a hard surface floor with no damage. Great pill case for a day's worth of meds, travel meds, etc. Fits a standard jeweler's saw for convenient and protective storage. Use it for travel spices - fill 'em up, label with a Sharpie marker, and throw them in your backpack. Very pleased with the purchase and have already put several to successful use.

These don't hold much food, but they are great for (very) small portions of candy or other treats to throw in your child's lunch. One tube perfectly fits a row of 10 mini-size marshmallows. We also use them for raisins, m&m's, peanuts, and more. The kids really like them and they're easy to open. If you pack a yogurt in your lunch, you can fill one of these with granola or other toppings. They take up no room in the dishwasher or you can clean them with a small bottle brush. We don't wash them after every use because we only put dry foods in them. Saves on plastic baggies and takes less space than other containers.Since these tubes contain all the plastic for an entire 2L bottle in a much smaller space, they are very hard. They will not bend or squish if you squeeze them. If you lose the caps, you can replace them with any other standard bottle cap.

If you were wondering, like I was, what batteries will these hold? Well, these are deceptively thick and short, so the insides are narrower than I'm used to with preforms... they are simply tank-like, though and the quality is top notch. So....???? You'll get 2 AA's stacked, or 3 CR123'. Both will fit with a bit of room at the top for some cushioning. Anything with a bigger circumference than a 123 will NOT FIT! My protected, and unprotected 18650's did not fit, nor did any of my IMR's. Cannot deny the price and the quality, just be aware of the size. I will be buying more...

I bought these to use for geocaching. They work just as good as any other preform that I have bought from other supply stores. They fit nicely into a 1" PVC pipe so you can make a nice holder. The only thing I wasn't thrilled with was the cap. It is not a regular soda bottle cap; it's a little thinner plastic.So far they are holding up well and I have had no complaints from the finders of my geocaches.

Very water tight and strong.

The caps that come with this listing are not the same as in the picture. They are much cheaper quality than advertised, made of a thin pink flexible plastic, with no inner blue lining to ensure a seal, an no safety ring. If they do not hold a seal I will be sending them back for a refund. The sticker on the box describes them as having a safety ring, which would have been consistent from times I ordered this item from other vendors.

As described.
